- 1913 - Bagg
- 1913-1922 - Little
- 1922 - MacDowell
- 1932 - Snell
- 1935 - Adervont
- 1951 - NIH
All colony histories contain some possiblity of inaccuracy. This
information is being provided to the best of Hilltop's knowledge.
The coat color of the mouse is albino. The mouse is propagated by brother
x sister mating. The colony at Hilltop is a closed colony and has been so
since 1999. Closed colonies do develop qualities causing the rats to be
uniquely suited to certain types of research.
